Reviewing the Master Codes

The Master Codes window displays the product codes that have been assigned to master codes. The system displays the first master code on file. The system will display only the assigned master codes, only the unassigned master codes, or all master codes depending on the option selected. The Master Codes window will display the cross-referenced product codes depending on the master type\code. You can use the Product Code Information window to set up and maintain your product codes.

To access the Master Codes window, click Administration under Teller Management. On the Administration menu bar, click Product Codes, then click Master Codes. This window can also be accessed from the Administration – Products and Services – Products menu.

Master Codes

How do I? and Field Help

You can all product codes, assigned product codes or unassigned product codes:

Click the All option to view all the product codes.
Click the Assigned Product Codes option view the product codes assigned to a master code.
Click the Unassigned Product Codes option to view the product codes that have not been assigned to a master code.

The Master to Product Code List grid displays the list of master codes. You can use the From PC and To PC fields to assign multiple product codes to two-character master codes, such as a share type master code (MS).

Column Heading	Description
Master Code	The master code(s) which act as cross-references to a credit union-defined product code. Each product code must be associated with the appropriate master code. The first two characters of each master code indicate the master type that defines the type of processing. The master type appears as the first character of the master code. The valid types are: C (drawer), D (dividend), G (general ledger), and M (member). The subtype code appears as the second character of the master code. For example, the master code for fees and other income is GI. The master type is G, and the subtype is I. The valid subtypes are: For type M: S - Share (non-IRA) I - Share (IRA) L - Loan D - Credit Card C - Certificate (non-IRA) R - Certificate (IRA) O - Other For type G: D - Cleared checks I - Fees and other income E - Expenses K - Checks disbursed L - Loan O - Other S - Share T - Tax X - Transfer For type C: B - US savings bonds C - Cash, currency, and coins K - Checks for deposit O - Other For type D: V - Dividend The third and fourth characters of the master code are unique identifiers. For example, the master code GKCU indicates general ledger (G) type, checks disbursed (K) subtype, credit union checks (CU). The unique identifier is CU. A master type with an unique identifier indicates the master has a one-to-one relationship with a product code. You must use the master code GKCU when setting up your credit union checks product code. The system will not allow another product to be cross-referenced to GKCU. Not all master codes have the unique identifier. For example, MS indicates member (M) type and shares (S) subtype. You can have unlimited product codes that cross-reference a two-character master code.
From PC and To PC	The product code that has a one-to-one relationship with a master code. You can assign multiple product codes to two-character master codes, such as a share type master code (MS). Two asterisks (**) will appear in the From PC and To PC fields associated with these master codes. If a one-to-one relationship exists between a master code and a product code, the system will display the specific product code in either the From PC or To PC fields or both. A blank appears in the From PC or To PC fields if you have not assigned a product code to the master code.
Description	The description of the master code. In addition to identifying the master code, this description will include, when applicable, the transaction associated with the code or the transaction for which the code is required.
Last Changed	The last time the product code assignment was changed.
